Project Mu
 
Has anyone had any experience with these brake pads?

Keen to pick a set up to match my DBA T3 4000 ClubSpec rotors, but not sure if they're really worth $200 a set.

Cheers

:thumbsup:

The dealer I bought my 86 from had them on his GTS he flogged around winton. A bit noisy when cold, but stopping power was great, no fade, still had plenty of meat on them afterwards too - i saw them :)

Ahhh forgive me for this opinion but when it comes to brake pads you decide firstly what kind of pad you want/need then you pay what ever the price. There is no point getting a pad that doesn't meet your requirements.

Also neither you nor RyleyMA61 specify which Project Mu pads. According to their website there are 3 to choose from.

From everything I heard about them 1st hand, they are amazing
I'm putting remsa (europe not usa) pads in on Friday, lets see how they go. From what I have seen and read about them, amazing, but very dusty

The Project Mu are very dusty?

It's okay Captain Snooze, I know you like to put your 2 cents in on each of my posts. I'm use to it by now.

Captain Snooze 12-05-2012 04:51 AM

But you are not addressing my concern. Which Project Mus are you referring to? Are you suggesting that all 3 types available for the 86/BRZ have the same characteristics?

yomchi1989 12-05-2012 04:57 AM

NS

Captain Snooze 12-05-2012 05:01 AM

Ah. Ok. According to their website Type NS are $179 so I am assuming you are referring to those. According to their site "with low noise/dust properties".

yomchi1989 12-05-2012 05:12 AM

Those are the ones...
But then again, Hawk do ceramic HP pads with low dust properties...
They're half the price too...

Surok 12-05-2012 05:37 PM

NS are not really that great.. you are paying mostly for the Pmu name ..
its like project MU greenstuff. 0- 400C only!

If you have no money.. get Intima SR6300.. 280 for a FULL SET front and rear - 700 degree pad. :)



HC+ are good. :)

yomchi1989 12-05-2012 11:48 PM

I won't be tracking :-)

Surok 12-05-2012 11:55 PM
